Giving to the Libraries

A Message from the Dean

The University at Albany Libraries have a long history of providing services and collections that enhance the University's learning and discovery mission of the University at Albany. Over the past two decades changes in technology have challenged us to develop new ways of delivering information to our students and faculty. Today, we face additional challenges posed by steady state or declining budgets combined with price increases, especially for digital materials. Consequently, more than ever, we rely on private support to build our collections, expand our services, and provide the overall excellent library experience our students and faculty deserve.
